W_K said: I shouldn't have bought this before finals, Haven't played campaign didn't play it on the first one either but online is very good. Yea online is very good, but it has major flaws. Like anyone who noticed or experienced on PS3 or 360 on domination how horrible the spawn system is? when i spawn back i get nailed behind me and when i spawn back its the other way around (me nailed the guy in front of me) IW needs to fix that. UMP45 is the new MP40 combine it with the Halographic sights and extended mags and your a total beast/ noob. And the 2 snipers you get @ lv 4 is the best snipers in the game (Intervention = New M40A3, and the .50 cal wtf?) The 3rd one is wierd looking and ugly, and the M21 is the last one to unlock. Also you can use the Dragonov on campaign, but not online wtf?? well it sucked balls on cod4 so idc. And secondary weapons is not a semi auto pistol anymore. now its small mini automatic guns, automatic pistol (Damn i love it) shotguns (Wow even an automatic shotty talk about overkill) and rockets. Well overall its a solid good game, but needs some fixing online. Note: Earlier PSN for MW2 was down, wonder if XBL was down also. |
|
| Ya the spawn points need a little bit of work,and it does get bad on domination when everyone gets spread out I got killed a number of times because of that, but thats nothing that a patch can't fix and hopefully does. The order you get guns seem to be way out of order to me, seems you get many of the better guns early on. I like the way the perks is set up now but stopping power is still almost a must have, but jugger is gone which is nice. |

I like the way the perks is set up now but stopping power is still almost a must have, but jugger is gone which is nice. Juggernaught is replaced with "Painkiller" Basically get owned 4 times in a row and you get only 10 seconds of extra health. Overkill is gone, since secondary weapons is idk lets see shottys, rockets, small automatic guns, and the G14 a freaking automatic pistol which is badass. Bandolier is replaced with 2 seperate things: Scavenger perk which you can pick up extra ammo from dead ppl, and Extended mags, which you need to kill alot of ppl to earn this attachment. Well thats much that i know from the top of my head and the bling perk is great except for assaults since i know noobs will equip noob tubes with a freaking red dot or whatever they choose. Oh i almost forgot Martydom is fixed now if you get owned 4 imes in a row then you drop a grenade so thats a improvement since thats freaking annoying on cod4/waw And you can move around in last stand. And also if you survive long enough you can stand back up, but keep in mind 1 shot or get knocked in the head with a nade and your dead. And theres no gold camo so stop with the headshot bullshit. |

| im likin the game alot, the scar-l is pretty much god mode, im also havin alot of fun with the riot shield me and my friends were walkin around in a phalanx and then just fought with throwing knives. my last unlock was the p90 which is pretty decent the single player is rather fun to , i havent finished it but when |
 |
| wow im the 1st one in the midnight release and there was almost 500 ppl in the walmart parking lot in Florida. So yea im surprised ppl didnt shove fight or jump anyone which i knew it will happen since the little gamestop was packed. Well at least im in one piece XD |
|
| Famas is garbage since its a 3 shot burst like the M16. Also i hope they will put some weapon pack addons besides new maps since the maps for MW2 is well good enough. wouldnt mind seeing the M40A3 back, but its already been replaced on MW2. I don't like the shield much since idk it doesnt protect me on fron either and i get knifed even though i got this big piece of crap in front of me, IW fix that. |

(haven't unlocked beyond that) I find Painkiller to be the best. l-PsYcHoDoN-l said: I don't like the shield much since idk it doesnt protect me on fron either and i get knifed even though i got this big piece of crap in front of me, IW fix that. Shields can be badass against campers - to get your team through a sniper barrages. The problem is getting kills with shield, expecially when it doesn't kills with one Bash... Making him the CS style would make much more sense. |

| I got the game and I've only been playing campaign on Veteran so far. It's fun and I'm enjoying the campaign. I'm not hardly finding any intel, so I'll have to run back through the game again to find all the intel I'm missing. haha Which I won't mind a bit. I'm seeing what I can do own my own without any help from a guide or anyone on my 1st run through of the game. I like the new splatter on the screen. It's nice seeing something completely different from GOW2. I'm going to have to do some Special Ops and Online this weekend though to see how bad it is from the comments above with the online portion. |
 |
| The weapon unlocks were really disappointing Imo. As have been said, the Scar and UMP are pretty much the best of their lots, so you wouldn't even need to consider using any of the other later guns, and the snipers, well, I don't see myself using the two last ones anytime soon. I do miss the G3 and G36 though, and it's sad to see they fucked up the Famas with a fucking burst mode. At least they could have automatic mode as a unlockable attachment or something. I've also noticed some sketchy stuff with the care packages, the chopper drop them straight down no matter the terrain, so if you're not careful, it might be dropped somewhere unreachable. I got one of mine on top of the Overpass once :/ And the tactical spawn is simply ace. The only real problems I have with multiplayer is the obvious retarded lack of dedicated server support and the underwhelming amount of players. Especially considering the size of some of the maps, 9v9 is just too little. As for the campaign, it was a splendid adrenal ride as usual, even more so than in CoD4, and there was a lot of surprising twists, though I did feel they could have elaborated the story a bit more. I have no doubt that if, whenever the next game comes, they make a similarly explosive campaign but with a bit more width and depth, it will likely be the best FPS campaign I've played yet. |
Baman said: As have been said, the Scar and UMP are pretty much the best of their lots, so you wouldn't even need to consider using any of the other later guns Well, they're a good guns no doubt, but latter guns aren't really worse. TAR21 that unlocks after is pretty decent, giving me a bit of advantage at close-range spays compared to SCAR. Didn't really felt the accuracy drop, still getting solid head shots on middle ranges, and decent on long (though a bit messy with ACOG sight). The gun that unlocks after is a good assault rifle/sniper rifle hybrid. Perfect for places where sniper rifle is "too heavy/slow" and assault rifle isn't accurate enough for head shots. But then again, it's just a matter of preference, there are no bad guns ..... maybe only except FAMAS. But only 'cause it's harder to use. Seen skilled players (or might be just lucky) nailing hard with it. Baman said: I've also noticed some sketchy stuff with the care packages, the chopper drop them straight down no matter the terrain, so if you're not careful, it might be dropped somewhere unreachable. I got one of mine on top of the Overpass once :/ Yeah, and it's also deadly. Be careful not to drop it near a slopes. Mine rolled down rly fast, crushing me xD l-PsYcHoDoN-l said: Bandolier is replaced with 2 seperate things: Scavenger perk which you can pick up extra ammo from dead ppl, and Extended mags, which you need to kill alot of ppl to earn this attachment. Actually, Bandolier is Scavanger Pro, which gives you additional mags besides enemy body looting. (btw, scavanging refills not only your ammo, but also granades) P.S. Has anyone seen a nuke yet? O_O |
|
| No haven't seen a nuke yet but I have it unlocked and I'm waiting might have to go into a private match and see what it does. |
| |
| It's pretty damn awesome. Played only a tiny bit in special ops. Didn't like that as much as campaign (which I've only played a small part of as well tbh) But campaign and multiplayer are awesome depending on what I'm in the mood for. Graphics look ace. Can't say much about story line. Maps are good, bar wasteland I think that's just ugh. Edit: Oh and this too - Akito38 said: the new blood splatter effect when you get hurt looks like strawberry jam and is annoying. |
| Yea i seen it, my friend (DaRkSiDe--) other fiend was one of the 1st to do the nuke (Sonduck). I seen the video and its on his youtube, but i don't feel like finding the vid and posting it. But ppl in his lobby was clueless when he did the nuke XD |

Akito38 said: as for care packages part of the strategy is making sure you dont put them in a place where they get stuck. So far I am the only person I know of this has happened to. I dropped a care package and was waiting for it to fall. It fell landed on me and killed me in one hit. Oh I'm not the only one then. Of course it's fun to make them land on your teammates or enemy. Snipers/campers are easy targets. |

I didn't think it would roll that much...or that fast. |
 |
| >_< havent played single player campaign so cant say much Spec Ops kinda similar in terms of objectives but still fun XD now ONLINE =D idc wut u guys say but im loving my Intervention and Akimbo Mp5k as for care packages........ be sure to know the map first XD (forgot wut it's called) first time i got it i was so happy, then was waiting for it for like 10 mins i was like wtf O.o turns out it was stuck on the highway above me.. btw i think stealing teammate's care packages are awesome =D |
| Vectorvectorvectorvectorvectorvector My weapon of choice, mostly because I don't see many people using it. |

Also i been owned by my own care package, like when i threw it across the map i get owned by some dude across the map and when i spawned i get smashed by my own box and my friends busted out laughing cuz they were running towards it. Talk about fail. Oh and heres a nice package drop from my friend |

| There will be a MW3 after i spoiled myself for the ending. If you beat campaign, then you know. But if you guys don't care about campaign and want to watch it then here you go. **Spoiler dont watch if you plan to play campaign** |

 |
| Violence doesn't solve anything. More violence does. |
| Lol. A boycott is so silly. Chances are they'll fix it eventually anyways, they want their money after all, and they know what the players want. But the current system isn't too bad either, except for the ridiculous 12 player limit. Some of the bigger maps are almost unplayable when there's so few people. |
| Boycotts are for retards. Seriously, its a game if they decide to make it whatever they want their online that fits right for them. Don't like it , then its too bad. I dont care if its Dedicated Servers or not, as long i can play a full game. |
|
| AH kotaku and the boycott pic, I'm after playing about 4 hours of the MP and 4 hours of the Single player not a big MP fan but it is quite fun. |
| Of all the things I've lost, I miss my mind the most |
Baman said: But the current system isn't too bad either, except for the ridiculous 12 player limit. Some of the bigger maps are almost unplayable when there's so few people. Yeah, maps like Wasteland and that massive one in the mountains can only be enjoyed with 18 players, so they should make those maps an exception when it comes to regular Team Deathmatch. I just hate playing Ground Wars and being forced to fight in the one small level with the broken up planes. Feels impossible to last a minute without being killed (without camping). |

| Oh and what's your thoughts on the TP modes? I found them really fun at least. Especially on that Rust map, holy shit. |
| Okay leaderboards: What matters most? what does not? Me Matters: Score Kills Dont matter: Wins/Losses Accuracy (Why IW its freaking pointless having that) Yea score and kills matter since im good at thoese areas. Wins/Losses dont matter to me since i always thrown into shitty teams so it doesn't matter. And why did they put back the gay accuracy leaderboards? Its filled with noobs and now 1 hacker on the #1 spot (PS3) Also #1 on score (PS3) is a fucking hacker, i forgot his name, but if your on PS3 then give out his faggot ass name. Also is there any hackers on the 360 leaderboard? I know there is at least 1 over there. |

Baman said: Oh and what's your thoughts on the TP modes? I found them really fun at least. Especially on that Rust map, holy shit. When I first heard there's gonna 3rd person mode I was like "ok wth", but this is actually fun. Considering the amount of time I spent playing in MW and CS 1.6, this is pretty refreshing. Gives a different feeling. You can look beyond a corner without exposing yourself. Opponents can to the same. Got killed a bit by those who could see me, but I couldn't them (beyond a corner, lying in a cover & etc). Also it's harder to get accurate shots, cause no scopes (only sniper ones). |
|
| 3rd person was actually more of a challenge and fun at the same time. Interesting that IW decide to have that. And also 3rd person cage matches is a very good thing, cuz it eliminates the annoying "Headshots" from cod4 which is very annoying. |
|
| I gotta say MW2 has the easiest veteran mode of all them. |
| SP is decent, pretty much what i'd expect from a CoD game SPEC OPS is decent (played wiff a buddy for a few hours last night) havent played MP usually save that for after i beat the sp while i'm having a blast so far, i'm waiting for the "new game" novelty to wear off before voicing my real opinions on it |
 |
| Oh, and guess what? I just played with a Lv.70 10th prestige dude. If that was even possible after barely a week, he'd have to be a ridiculously pro player with no need for sleep, but yet, he scored just around average. I wonder if someone's cheating here... |

If that was even possible after barely a week, he'd have to be a ridiculously pro player with no need for sleep, but yet, he scored just around average. I wonder if someone's cheating here... Saw a lvl 70 dude TWO DAYS after the game was released. Checked forums about this shit, and yeah someone found a glitch/hack/cheat to lvls. As I understand it, after you close the game, it sends the all data about your XP, Challenges & stuff that you gained during playing to the SteamCloud (where your profile is preserved). So by changing (lets say, with Artmoney) the amount of XP it sends to the SteamCloud, you can get yourself a lvl 70. Then you have just to restart the game, so it synchronizes with SteamCloud and your lvl 70 is retrieved... Though, if done incorrectly, you'll get a lvl 70 - but not the unlocks :D But I don't really see the point in it, just ruins all the fun. P.S. I heard the Prestige mode gives something additional except the medal. Any ideas what it is? |

| SND is no longer the game to give out big XP and score anymore since the score system is way different from cod4. |
